Make Your Walls More Interesting (Part – 1)

Our ideas have kept flowing on how to make your home look elegant. As part of this effort we thought if we could discuss about walls while being built, can be made more attractive and after being built, how pretty they can be designed or painted. Keep your Chennai Flat promoters in loop before you ask for some structural changes in the wall during the building stage.

While Building the walls

1) In the living room select the wall that is going to be the highlight of the room. Ensure this wall is free from anything like an unplanned electrical fitting in the middle that hangs out, a concrete slab, any unwanted perforation in the wall etc. The wall can be either plastered or left unplastered. As we have seen in our earlier post on living room interiors, the unplastered living room highlight wall can be colored to give a rugged appearance.

2) Highlight walls can also be tiled with rugged stones or ethnic tiles to give an elegant look.

3) All electrical fittings should be properly concealed inside the wall and plastered.

4) In the Kitchen, ensure the walls are given perforation outlet for exhaust fans or exhaust pipes of electrical chimneys in the construction stage itself. These perforations can preferably be on to one side instead of occupying the middle section of the wall.

5) The wall area between the kitchen slab that houses the cooking range and the kitchen cabinet has to be preferably tiled with ceramic tiles.

6) The walls in the bathroom have to be given adequate perforation for fixing exhaust fans and are more often plastered with ceramic designer tiles. The wall area surrounding the wash basin also has to be tiled for rich look.

Decorating the walls

1) The highlight wall of the living room can be decorated by hanging some artworks. The artworks can be illuminated by light fixtures that are fixed on top. While selecting the artwork for the living space, one has to keep in mind the right size of it to ensure it goes well with the dimension of the highlight wall.

2) Any slab on the wall can be painted in matt white color for it to stand out elegantly. Placing ceramic wares as part of the interiors adds beauty to the wall. The ceramic ware with an indoor creeper plant adds a natural touch to the surrounding.

3) In the Kitchen stainless steel railings can be fixed in the walls to house extra cookery items.

4) In general, walls if plastered can be either painted with array of colors available in the market or can be fixed for wall papers. Wide varieties of wall papers are available.
